Ep 202 - Does this serve the person God is inviting me to become?
In this episode of "Charisms for Catholics," Jill summarizes and sifts through all of the amazing interviews from Opt Out October, focusing on how Catholics can thoughtfully discern how to fill new spaces in their lives—whether physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual—after intentionally opting out of commitments or clutter. She explains the importance of asking, "Does this serve the person God is inviting me to become?" before bringing in new activities, possessions, or commitments, as well as explore practical ways to keep life uncluttered, ensuring the space made isn't quickly filled again without discernment. This episode is perfect for finding first steps into integrating discernment into everyday decisions, using reminders to reflect on God's invitation rather than rushing to fill emptiness.
